We have extensive experience in fitting offices, schools, theatres, hospitals and just about any other professional space you can think of. Our motorised curtain track systems are extremely reliable, of the highest quality and can be customised to the exact specification of your business. If you’re currently considering an upgrade to the curtain fixtures and mechanisms in your work space, it’s certainly worth considering motorised systems, the advantages they offer over alternative choices create an extremely compelling case for an upgrade. Read on to discover how Corona Contacts’ array of specialist options can help your business.

Security is essential in all professional environments. It’s vital to protect expensive, unique equipment and personal information stored in the workplace. Motorised curtain track systems offer a considerable upgrade in workplace security by presenting the illusion of occupancy every day, even during weekends and public holidays. This is achieved through automated systems which control curtain opening and closing at set times each day, several times a day if required. The security benefit is particularly useful for businesses whose premises are not consistently occupied or operate outside of regular office hours. Motorised systems even offer remote control via an internet connection; a business owner could be may hundreds of miles away and still be able to operate their fixtures remotely.

Automated operation can also be triggered by lighting conditions. If an area has an issue such as excessive heat from the sun or glare, the curtain tracks can be triggered to operate when the threshold level is reached. Customers working in a presentation or public-facing environment are particularly appreciative of this as it offers an extremely convenient solution with minimal distraction to clients. Over time businesses also benefit from a productivity boost since employees are no longer occupied by the need to leave their workstation and manually operate the curtain fixtures depending on temperature and lighting conditions.

Hard to reach areas tend to reap major benefits from motorised curtain track systems. Often in larger installations such as theatres curtains hang from extremely high suspension points. Issues of access arise often in environments such as these and the weight of large, thick curtains can also pose challenges to manual operation. Automated and remote control motorised curtain track systems solve many of these issues. What’s more, with no need for a manual drawstring any possible health and safety issues arising from ligature hazards are nullified, something our clients in the education world are particularly appreciative of.

These are just a few of the advantages that motorised curtain track systems can provide for your business. If you’d like to chat to us about your specific requirements and find out how our systems can be customised to your needs, don’t hesitate to reach out to Corona Contracts today. In many cases we can provide an estimate remotely, and we’re happy to discuss how we can help at no obligation.

Our modular systems can be used to cater to all kinds of large or unusually shaped projects. The limitations are dependant on the system, for example for curtain tracks the weight of the curtain may be what restricts the length. This is why we offer a bespoke design service to ensure that we create and fit the system that best meets your needs.

We provide a timescale with our quote. We aim to complete all installations as quickly and efficiently as possible, but please remember that in order to provide the highest possible standard of installation and reliability some projects can take several days to complete.

As much information as possible will help us (and you) to avoid any surprises! Your location, the size of the area to fitted, the access available to the area, the times the area can be accessed, the desired result e.g. sound insulation, blackout, your preferred material and finish, your budget, your deadline for completion. Please call us for a chat if you are unsure or would like advice.

All of our products come with their own individual guarantees. Our installations are of the highest quality and do not generally require maintenance. If you feel your installation requires servicing we would be happy to help, so please contact us.
